North Lincolnshire
Council is inviting you to have a say on the proposals for the future growth
and development of North Lincolnshire during a six week public consultation
starting on Friday 25 April 2014. And there's a chance to learn more at an event in Brigg.
The proposals are set
out in the Housing & Employment Land Allocations Development Plan Document
(DPD). This document is an important part of the overall planning blueprint for
the area called the Local Development Framework.
The DPD sets out where new homes, jobs and businesses will be located across North Lincolnshire. This will be done by identifying specific sites for these and include community development limits to show where development will be allowed.
This final version of the DPD is a result of a number of years of work that include three consultation periods with local communities, statutory bodies and those with an interest in the future growth and development of the area.
This consultation is the last chance for you to have your say before the document is sent the Government to be scrutinized by a Planning Inspector at an independent examination.
The council needs your views on the reliability of the document and your thoughts on it as a whole. Do you think the proposals will work? Do you agree with the specified sites?
The DPD can be viewed online at: www.northlincs.gov.uk/planning-and-environment/planning-policy/local-dev-framework/housing-employment-land-allocations/, at the Civic Centre in Scunthorpe and at your nearest local link or library.
To comment on the proposals set out in the DPD complete the online consultation at: www.northlincs.gov.uk/your-council/have-your-say/consultations-and-petitions/consultations/current-consultations/ . Alternatively you can collect a form from the Civic Centre or your nearest local link or library to comment on the plan. You can send completed forms to Spatial Planning, Civic Centre, Ashby Road, Scunthorpe, DN16 1AB or you can email comments to spatial.planning@northlincs.gov.uk.
A guide will be provided with the form to help you make comments.
The consultation period for you to have your say is from 25 April to 6 June 2014. All comments need to be made by 4.30pm on the final day.
During the six week period, North Lincolnshire Council will be holding a number of events where anyone can drop in a look at the proposals for their areas, including:
The document will then form part of the development plan for North Lincolnshire and will be used in taking planning decisions on planning applications.

Coun Liz Redfern , Leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “It’s really important that all residents have the chance to have their say on this crucial document - and this is the last chance before it is sent to Government. This document is part of the Local Development Framework and will help transform North Lincolnshire over the next 12 years.
“It is imperative that sufficient housing and employment land is allocated to assist in the transformation of North Lincolnshire’s economy. This is exactly what the DPD does. It also looks at development limits that are important to all of our local communities, regardless of their size.
“I urge everyone interested in North Lincolnshire’s future to get involved and share your comments."
